What do you use to shoot video? Focus can be locked on any Android phone by just touching and holding the subject in the camera preview. The focus circle should turn yellow and display a lock icon next to it. At least that's what it looks like on my Galaxy S21.
@@Ohio.Gozaimasu indeed it can with the stock camera app. For this video I had to switch to a different camera app that supported external microphones - which was the real thing I was testing here - and I couldn't make the damn thing lock in the same way as the stock Android app. For a video I just shot for Heavy Metallurgy I worked out how to put it in manual mode, so that should fix it moving forward.
@@ExplosiveAction Manual (aka "pro") mode is always the way to go, if only just for the low ISO. I got a compact Canon camera a few years ago when I barely knew anything about shooting video and you can't set ISO to manual with that thing. As a result, everything shot in low light conditions just DROWNS in noise.
Blacklight was partly shot in Canberra which was fun to look out for. A truck comes out of an alley which is behind where the Terrace Bar was which was a legendary old venue that I saw many gigs at and smoked many bad things in that alley area
Hi Simon. I have the Bounty Hunter set on its way to me as we speak. Are you planning on getting the Eureka Sonny Chiba releases being Yakuza Wolf and Bodyguard sets? Radiance is putting out deluxe set of Bava’s Planet of the Vampires. That’s been a long time coming. I have the Viavision re-release of the Airport movies. Proving that there is little to no genre the Italians won’t rip off we need someone to release Ruggero Deodato’s Concorde Affair 79.
Yes mate! I already got Yakuza Wolf. Bodyguard Kiba is in my next list to order! Great titles from them. And I may as well upgrade Planet of the Vampires for a THIRD time on blu-ray haha.
Apologies for the auto-zoom in this, and I'm not entirely happy with the new microphone. Will keep experimenting!

Nice haul and update Simon! Keep the love and passion alive, keep the flame burning! Long live physical media!
Cheers!

Hah! Shame there's no Mendicant cameo
Don't forget that Christopher Lee also appears in Airport 77. Yes those movies are jam packed with names.
Hah, awesome!
Fall is awesome!! The biggest surprise of 2022 for me. I'm a sucker for survival movies
Great to hear it's good!
I really liked Creep, and the sequel is good too. Pretty clever use of the whole "found footage" idea that's been done to death.
Oh there's a sequel? Good to know!
Like and share the video everyone
Last Seen Alive was actually released in the cinema, as did Blacklight
I figured Blacklight might have, but surprised Last Seen Alive was
@@ExplosiveAction is kinda like a Breakdown kind of movie.
I think Blacklight was filmed in Australia

Speaking of Seagal, I watched Asian Connection the other day, my God it was horrendous, one of his worst 😅
Hahaha yeah that's a rough one!
How often do you find yourself reading the booklets?
Hmm not that frequently unless it's one I really want to know more about. Maybe a quarter
Interesting pickups of cheesy films that ruby rose film is not available at all in the us
Cheers! Huh, that's surprising. Yeah Ruby Rose was good in The Doorman, hopefully the same applies here.
@@ExplosiveAction yeah she kicked ass in that film 👊👊
